The Inline Advanced Stabilizer is a toggleable module that provides SAS functionality, a sort of autopilot to stabilize and help keep a rocket on course. It contains reaction wheels to provide torque to rotate the craft.

Description

The inline reaction wheel system uses a series of spinning disc that are going "Very Fast", to generate the torque necessary to control a spacecraft. Comes complete with a built in flight computer. Please do not attempt to service this device while it is running.
